re: What Were You Doing On A Friday Night In High School?

Posted by red sox fan 13 on 2/25/26 at 1:51 pm to STigers

Played high school football. I don’t know how some guys partied after our games because I was always dog tired having been on my feet since 6:30 am with whatever tests of the school day plus an exhausting football game.

Joining the EU with the immigration that came with it is finishing them off.

Yes the EU’s lax immigration policies were certainly a problem but Brexit made the immigration issue way worse. In the EU they had Poles and Romanians, now that cheap labor has been replaced by 3rd worlders (never mind that Poland is beginning to surpass the UK in quality of life metrics anyway). The level of immigration also rocketed up post-Brexit under Tory leadership. So people who thought they were voting for less immigrants wound up in a much worse situation.

re: How many hot glazed donuts could you eat in one sitting?

Posted by red sox fan 13 on 2/25/26 at 1:30 pm to Slippy

If I’m hungry and they are hot and fresh, I could knock out a dozen plus. I usually limit myself to 4 or 5 though if I get donuts.

Overall this station does have some quality radio shows. Very impressive.

The fan is not bad, but I feel like Chuck is a bit of a dry Hanagriff figure who needs his very own Jimmy Ott to liven things up and really unlock the true potential of the show.

I distinctly remember that LESS THAN FIVE years ago the big talking point was that it would cost $15M to construct a championship caliber roster. How in the absolute frick did that nearly triple in such a short time? This shite is beyond stupid.

Billionaires with a win now at all costs mentality. Future health of college sports be damned, I’m gonna try to get mine. It’s the same mindset in a lot of industries.

I will never be concerned with LSU baseball under JJ unless and until they miss the tournament.

It sucks to lose the illusion that players care about LSU or their respective schools, but as long as they win I won’t get up in arms. Now when they suck and still make millions like LSU did last year, that’s when I get a little annoyed, but it’s also not my money.

re: Tonight, Arkansas lost to Arkansas St. 12-4. It happens to the best of them.

Posted by red sox fan 13 on 2/25/26 at 8:27 am to Asleepinthecove

I would not fret about a baseball loss unless they start stacking like 2024. Even then, if they lose a lot of games, JJ has still earned a LOT of leeway and this is all a warmup for the tournament anyway.

I thought they could move before the Vegas and Seattle expansions were announced. Now I don’t think there are any open markets outside maybe Nashville.

I would recommend not doing it at all. I gambled for about 2 years or so after it became legal and I was around a .500 bettor over that time. It got to the point that I would be stressing every night about some random NBA player’s stats or Mexican soccer or whatever other dumb shite for no reason besides keeping the money in my account alive so I could keep playing. I wasn’t enjoying it anymore so I kicked it to the curb and it felt like throwing off a weight because I can now enjoy my evenings without having to worry about that stuff.

Aside from Maxwell, Andrew seems to be the only person to actually face consequences for associating with Epstein.
